Fury ends his career with a 33-0-1 record and last fought on April 23rd, retaining his WBC and The Ring Heavyweight Championships against Dillon White. He also made an appearance at WWE Crown Jewel with a win over Braun Strowman, and has teased another appearance — something Drew McIntyre has often stated his wish for as well. McIntyre had a back and forth on social media and in interviews in 2020, teasing a potential match between them.
